Ah...La Fin Du Monde!

So I recovered yesterday enough to attend an early birthday celebration for one of our friends. We had some beer at the Celtic Ray...I should say I probably had MUCH beer. Matt kindly opted to be our designated driver. I learned last night that the beverages offered at that great establishment are quite potent. I had only three beers at the Celtic Ray, but OH was I tipsy! The La Fin Du Monde particularly contributed to my inebriation...

After a quick trip to the cigar bar, Moosehead's, and the River City Grill, I got my first glimpse of what is known as "the Poon," AKA, Harpoon Harry's. It didn't seem as though we were there for more than just a few minutes, but for good-natured Matt, it was an eternity. He hates that place. After having gone there, I am indifferent. I might be persuaded to go again, but I didn't fall in love with it. I love to dance, but by the time we got there, I was really too tipsy to even dance with any semblance of rhythm or skill. I'm sure I was quite funny to watch, but I'm not sure that anyone could have even spotted me on that crowded dance floor!

I woke up this morning and felt my oats a bit. Matt, his father, and I drove to the airport to pick up Matt's mom, who was returning from a visit with her sister in Maryland. We had a nice lunch and browsed through books at Barnes & Noble for a while. We located a Home Depot, and Matt and I selected the new vanity we are going to purchase for the bathroom we are in the process of redoing. After quickly looking at tile, we have an idea of what we want to do to the kitchen after the bathroom is finished. I picked up a catalogue of patio furniture, and looked at it as we drove back to Arcadia. Once we dropped Matt's parents back at their house, we looked at each other and agreed that we needed a nap in the worst way!

I think we will most likely have a quick bite for dinner and watch a movie borrowed from "the Movie Man." This was quite a pleasant day, and I am glad to know that I can procrastinate on housecleaning until tomorrow.

La Fin du Monde is awesome!! If you really want to try a good one, try Ephemere or one of their signature editions. All beer from Unibroue is great, I wish we could get it here in Johnson City. Talk to ya later!!
